Thanks for the offer Greg, Next time I'm in the area I might take you up on that. When is Wandin?
I've been trying to sort out the wiring this weekend. Basically all done now. RAVE is very handy. There's only a few of plugs I cant find listed in it, maybe the version I have doesn't cover D2a's?
So I have one plug (same as rear bar reverse/tail light plug) with 3 wires, Brown/green, Green/Light green and Brown/yellow. The Brown/yellow then goes to another plug, which has it and an earth (black).
Then there are these plugs.

There are only 3 wires that go back to the main loom from these, a Red/Grey, a Grey, and a Light green/Orange. I cant find it any were in Rave. I'm pretty sure it wasn't connected to anything when I pulled the disco apart..... but that was a long time ago.
The last plug I am unsure of is C0666, Sounder - Alarm - Battery backed up. RAVE has it listed for all models but I don't remember seeing it, and its not in the cupboard.
I done the trial fit up of the hood lining last weekend.

Thats all for now.
Tim Wandin is set for feb 21, if you run out of time with the disco come for a look anyway. Usually a good weekend had by all. Sorry can't help with electrics, would be the only job in thirty odd years as a mechanic that I tagged every plug that was in use. A lot of unused wiring in the back is ICE and dvd stuff.
Cheers Greg
This is a fantastic build up! do you have any updated pics?
Well a lot has been happening in the shed since the last update.
The left rear is basically done, I just have one small panel to make on the inside.

I've even got carried away and started putting some etch primer on. Deep down all land rovers are green right?

I'm hoping to have it painted in a couple of months, but because I want to change it to metallic silver, (it was white), it may take a bit longer. I may have to hold a rubbing back party for the engine bay, under the wipers, around the wipers etc etc.
Can anyone with a silver disco tell me what color the inner guards are in the engine bay? Mine are a light grey, even though the rest of it is white, it must be a primer color?
Thats all for now.
Cheers,
Tim

Time for another update.
Things have been a little slow out in the shed lately. On Xmas day I proposed to my partner Alison, so now I am very busy getting things organized for the wedding in November, and trying to get the back yard tidy for the engagement party in a couple of weeks time.
Here is a couple of pics of what I have got done.
New door and guard for the drivers side the ones I had were very ordinary, thanks Bundalene.

The passenger side is now fully welded and now only needs painting.

Made a set of 4 of these stands. As you can see they fold up for easy storage. They can also adjust in height.

The rear is now on factory SLS, once again thanks Bundalene. I'll do a tutorial once it is finished.
